* ComicBook/RasAlGhul uses proper names for those on whom he has not bestowed a title like "detective", for instance he calls [[ComicBook/Robin1993 Tim]] "Timothy", [[ComicBook/Batgirl2000 Cass]] "Cassandra" and [[ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} Dick]] "Richard".
* ComicBook/{{Raven}} refers to her friends by their names. She's one of the few who call Dick "Richard". This is due to her aloof personality and upbringing.

* In the pilot of ''Series/LeaveItToBeaver,'' one of the things Beaver dislikes about his second-grade teacher, Miss Canfield, is her refusal to call him anything but his given name of Theodore. At the end of the episode, they find common ground in the fact that they are both new to the second grade (her teaching, him attending), and he provides her with some pointers--one of them being that she should call him what he prefers to be called. She agrees.
